Adult neurogenesis, a concept emergent in the late 1990s, is the generation of new neurons in the adult brain. This process occurs thank to cells who have this proliferative feature, named as Neural Stem Cells (NSCs). Neural Stem Cells (NSCs) are primary progenitors who can generate the two neural types (neurons and glia). Classically it was assumed that NSCs are only present in the embryo, but...

introduction: multiple sclerosis (ms) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease. in the present study, we investigated the response of subventricular zone (svz) adult stem cells in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (eae), an animal model of ms, and also the differentiation fate of these stem cells. methods: mice were immunized with mog peptide emulsified in complete freund&apo...

Introduction: During the last decade, advances in tissue engineering and stem cell-based tooth regeneration have provided realistic and attractive means of replacing lost or damaged teeth. The first adult stem cells isolated from dental tissues were dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs). When transplanted with hydroxyl apatite/tri calcium phosphate (HA/TCP) powder, they formed a dentin-like structure...

stem cells are undifferentiated cells with the ability of proliferation, regeneration, conversion to differentiated cells and producing various tissues. stem cells are divided into two categories of embryonic and adult. in another categorization stem cells are divided to totipotent, multipotent and unipotent cells. so far usage of stem cells in treatment of various blood diseases has been studi...

Introduction: Nogo-A and Nogo receptor (NgR) are expressed in the subventricular zone (SVZ) stem cells. NgR plays critical inhibitory roles in axonal regeneration and remyelination. However, the role of NgR in SVZ niche behaviors in demyelination context is still uncertain. Here we investigated the effects of NgR inhibition on SVZ niche reaction in a local model of demyelination in adult mouse ...

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory demyelinating disease. In the present study, we investigated the response of subventricular zone (SVZ) adult stem cells in the experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model of MS, and also the differentiation fate of these stem cells. Methods: Mice were immunized with MOG peptide emulsified in complete Freund'...

Objective(s): In this paper, we discussed natural agents with protective effects against stem cell senescence. Different complications have been observed due to stem cell senescence and the most important of them is “Aging”. Senescent cells have not normal function and their secretary inflammatory factors induce chronic inflammation in body which causes different patho...

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) are non-specialized adult stem (ASCs), that reproduce to provide specific cytotypes [...]

background: recent publications about differentiation of stem cells to germ cells have motivated researchers to make new approaches to infertility. in vitro production of germ cells improves understanding differentiation process of male and female germ cells. due to the problem of using embryonic stem cells (esc), it’s necessary the mentioned cells be replaced with some adult multi-potent stem ...
